Mole Posted 1 July, 2009 Share Posted 1 July, 2009 If anyone breaks into your house it should be the law that you are entitled to kill them imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redbul Posted 1 July, 2009 Share Posted 1 July, 2009 If anyone breaks into your house it should be the law that you are entitled to kill them imo. The law says that you are entitled to use reasonable force. Now, I have a house with 2 teenage girls in it, a little boy and of course the spouse. If I find someone in the house I would equate reasonable force as any means available to me to protect them from him or her. So I'll try and put the **** on his (or her) ar5e by any means available to me. That's reasonable. If I carried on smacking him when he was down, that would be unreasonable. I think the law is fairly woolly on this point and usually finds in favour of the homeowner. Unless of course they've offed the intruder and are caught trying to get rid of the evidence by putting them through a log chipper or feeding them to pigs. PS Well done Frank!!!!

I don't think anyone would tell on you mate. If someone was to enter my house, I would immediately assume that my life was in danger. And I were to die, my familiy would also be in danger, therefore I would kill that person. FACT x hamster Edited 2 July, 2009 by hamster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Boy Saint Posted 2 July, 2009 Share Posted 2 July, 2009 If anyone breaks into your house it should be the law that you are entitled to kill them imo. Apparently in Philadelphia US, the law is pretty definitely in favour of the home owner, basically while the criminal is still in your property it is open season. I had a friend who lived in Philadelphia for a while and many an early morning he saw someone holding on to a tree or lamp post for their lives while people in their pyjamas were trying to drag them back into the house!!

tpbury Posted 2 July, 2009 Share Posted 2 July, 2009 I agree in principle with kicking the stuff out of an intruder. But it does presuppose that you are harder than he (or she). I'd have an extreme amount of anger concerning my kids and wife (well maybe I'd have to negotiate on the wife...), but I don't think that alone would be enough. Are you all confident you could administer the punishment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you all confident you could administer the punishment? If they were bigger i would use the correct reasonable force in order to get them to the ground, be it a chair leg, an iron pipe or any sharp object. Hamster i 100% agree, if someone is in my house you don't know what they will do, are they going to negotiate for your cash ?? No, they are likely to beat it out of you, therefore if i ever encounter someone they will be down a flight of stairs or through a window quite rapidly.

Even things up a bit, a cricket bat/golf club/chair/wooden kendo sword is a great equaliser!!!! My Grandad used to keep a length of hosepipe with a lump of lead stuck in the end to use as a cosh if anyone tried to break in his place. He used it once over the back of some idiots head trying to climb in one of his windows. Thought he'd better 'phone the police 'cos he knocked the f***er out and he bled all over his wall and carpet. Guess what happened? Nothing. Bloke came to and staggered off, police basically said he got what he deserved.

hamster Posted 3 July, 2009 Share Posted 3 July, 2009 I'm sure they'd still be able to claim their E2E/Job Seekers. I am in no way condoning crime, violent crime and thieving appals me, but I know what it feels like to be young and all you hear around you is that your parents have no future and you have no future. I found some of the comments on the 'Specials' thread that was quite ironic considering that they were formed as a kick back to the politicians, they were the voice of disheartend kids who were watching their parents lose faith in the system. Lady Thatcher is very ill, I would like to bury the hatchett right now. I hope are feeling better very soon A great lady. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimond Geezer Posted 3 July, 2009 Share Posted 3 July, 2009 Top bloke. I just wonder how lenient the Plod/courts would have been if the house owner had been a strong, fit 30 year old and done the same thing. My guess is he would have been arrested and charged with assault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew up with the Specials, Clash, Joy Division, Ruts etc., but I don't remember me or any of my mates breaking into anyones house. and things were pretty bleak then too. We even had the [diminishing] threat of Mutually Assured Destruction hanging over our heads!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badgerx16 Posted 3 July, 2009 Share Posted 3 July, 2009 Lady Thatcher is very ill, I would like to bury the hatchett right now. Where exactly ?

Watched the crime programme with Nick Ross the other night - it was about Tony Martin and defending your home. At the end of the programme, they said that if you kill an intruder in Texas, they give you $5000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
